Hi everybody,

I wonder if anyone can help me with this. I have a huge list of brands that I would like to be spell-checked automatically by Illustrator. Is there a way I can bulk add them to the programme's dictionary? Adding them one by one will be a huge task.

Many thanks in advance!

I've been hunting to bulk add medical terms and I think things have changed around a bit since this answer was listed.

I found the mentioned txt file at

C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\Adobe\Linguistics\UserDictionaries\Adobe Custom Dictionary\all

copy+pasted the terms in and then reloaded adobe worked a treat. Added too many words though and it slowed it all down. I'll go back through and do a good cull and should be sweet
